when informed of the assassination of Hoshi Toru. His service here as minister lasted from 1896 to 1898. He is well known both in diplomatic and official ecircles. Before coming here he was prominent in the polities of his country and on returning to Japan he became a member of the cabinet, serving as minister of communication. His official life in Washington and at home were marked by vigor and decisiveness, and these characteristics brought him much enmity in certsin political circles of Japan. This resulted in charges affecting his integrity as a member of the cabinet, and rather than compromise his associates by the controversy he tendered his resignation and began libel suits against his detractors. Feeling ran high over the affair and it is probably due to this that the fatality occurred. Mr. Hoshi leaves a wife and one son, the latter nine years old. He was 48 years of age, and beside his prominence in politics was a student amya man of literary accomplishments. ¢ KEEP CHINESE TROOPS OUT.
